Wonderful 4day stay

Location was perfect, close to darling street restaurants and shops. We were initially worried about parking, however a parking permit provided with the house meant we found parks always virtually in front of the house. All amenities were great, very comfortable beds and loved the decor. The lounge and courtyard area is beautifully sunny.

Owner's Response: Thankyou Chris for your positive review...and apologies for my delay in responding! It slipped past me and I have only just seen it. It was a delight to have you stay. Many Thanks!

Great location

Four adults stayed here for 5 nights. The location is excellent near all the nice shops, bars and restaurants in Balmain. However, we thought the property needed a little updating and was not quite as pictured in the photos. Only 1 mirror (which was in the bathroom) in the whole house which is not good when four adults are trying to get ready for an evening out!!! The sofas in the lounge definitely needed updating and the lounge was very sparsely furnished. As said, four adults stayed but with only one bathroom and one toilet I think any more than four guests would struggle! Mel was excellent and answered my couple of queries very quickly.

Owner's Response: Hello Lyn Thank you for your review. We were delighted to accommodate your last minute request for early check-in and to respond quickly to all of your questions. Guest comfort is our highest priority and we have not previously heard the types of comments that you have provided. As you can see from all of our other reviews our previous guests have been delighted by 'Tenandry' and rate its quality, cleanliness and comfort well. We have reviewed your comments on the property and suspect that it comes down to 'Tenandry' simply not being your 'cup of tea'.The property is as photographed and described and our previous guests have enjoyed this. This is a shame but ultimately it comes down to subjectivity and what suits one does not suit another... We hope that you had a wonderful and memorable trip to Australia to celebrate your sons wedding and that you had a safe journey home. Thanks again for your booking. Best wishes, Melanie

Great place!

I overlooked this place many times when looking for a place to stay over New Year, for no reason! Wanted to take my family to see Sydney's fireworks, 3 kids. When I finally contacted Melanie about this place she told me about the Balmain vantagepoints. And what a great stay we had. Friends came over (from Finland), we had BBQ at the house and then walked 10 minutes to the vantage park and enjoyed the fireworks!!! Overall the location was great, we used the ferry to get around Sydney. The house is beautiful, you got to see it yourself!

Owner's Response: Thanks Viveka for your lovely review. I am so pleased you had a fabtastic time. I hope the Finish winter has not been to harsh on your return from sunny Sydney! Best wishes Melanie

Fantastic Townhouse!!

A lovely homely property, beautifully appointed with all the mod cons you could possibly need! So handy with a short walk to the ferry wharf or quick taxi ride to the city. My only criticism would be that the front bedroom could do with air conditioning, but we were there for "one of the hottest overnight temps on record"
